Campo de Santana fountain, taken from the Church of Sant'Ana

Campo de Santana fountain and several black people performing activities related to the use of water from the fountain. In the foreground we see a woman washing clothes and a child standing beside her, two men carrying barrels to get water from the fountain and a man resting with his barrel of water in front of him. In the background we see several women with water jugs on their heads, a man filling a large barrel attached to a horse-drawn cart, and several other people. All people appearing in the frame are black. Further down, we see the Convento de Santo Antônio and the houses in downtown Rio de Janeiro
